The two operating systems are binary equivalents but are licensed differently.

Stay informed. So let me get this straight Microsoft has always quite explicitly discouraged the use of it as a daily driver for information workers specifically because of the lack of OS servicing, ongoing silicon support, etc.

In what world does this make sense? Also I would encourage Joe Lurie and the team to make it easier to get support.

If LTSC gets now 5 years is it split into half so 2. This is very disappointing. For those that deal with regulated and specialty equipment you understand that our vendors do not adapt that quickly and we the customers are left to deal with EOL OS’.

If Microsoft is going down this road to shorten the life from 10 to 5 years they really need to do a better job partnering with the suppliers that provide equipment controlled by Windows. In the end it doesn’t matter whether five years or ten years. We have a tape robot by Sun in our data center. Anybody here who remembers who and what was Sun? This tape robot runs very well, so why should we replace it.

It runs with Windows Using an operating system that runs out of support by the origin publisher is never a good idea for such devices.

The control machines are standard workstations and the hardware must be replaced every five years. So I know some old-fashioned people at our institute who would like to stay on Windows XP forever will be disappointed. But in the end the change it will not really make i difference for us. Joe Lurie I understand the points you’ve made, but I’m confused on the ultimate reasoning behind knocking down the support lifetime.

I swear I’m not trying to argue just to argue, I want to understand Microsoft’s logic is all. But the former has 10 years of support, the latter gets 5 years. So this halving of support seems unfair and arbitrary, even more so when this very article implies that customers misusing LTSC is the entire reasoning behind the decision:. Our support lifecycle decisions are based on direct and in-depth feedback from our customers.

Joe Lurie will licensing become more flexible for the win10 iot enterprise version? Today that specific flavor is only sold to a few select resellers. I manage specialty devices for an enterprise. I understand the desire to limit enterprises from deploying LTSC to the office environment but Microsoft does a poor job of understanding the specialty uses for windows. Tammy You’ve hit the nail on the head of why I’m being critical of this decision. Right now we have Enterprise LTSC running digital signage, self-service kiosks, machines that control mass spectrometers and NMR in labs, and various medical devices in our health center.

But until we have more info on such plans or lack thereof, “just use IoT” is easier said than done. Which makes the answers here all the more patronizing, frankly In the mean time, the net result for us as an organization is that future Enterprise LTSC releases just got their support halved for no valid reason. Also, it is too costly to expect us to have to replace process control equipment every 5 years. We hope Microsoft comes to their senses and reverses this decision in time for the next LTSC version.

You can install Windows 10 Enterprise semi-annual channel on the devices in your infrastructure that the IW uses, and LTSC on the specialized devices all with the same license. AngryJohnny75 Thanks for that feedback. Along with the other feedback we’ve received here I’ll be brining this back to our product group. In your scenario, yes, staying on LTSC is probably the best solution for you. Joe Lurie , thanks for your prompt response. To be perfectly clear, since LTSC has only 5 years of support – we see no valid reason for adopting this new version whatsoever.

For new information worker desktops, we will continue to deploy Windows 10 SAC as originally instructed by Microsoft. But as others have already mentioned – we find the current distribution and licensing of IoT to be extremely constraining therefore making deployment of IoT limited and impractical in most cases.

AngryJohnny75 we will have issues with the fact that LTSC only supports up to 10th generation intel, right? If we have to get them from an IOT vendor it will force many orgs to do purchasing rounds with increased costs as result.

Worse is the loss of flexibility. A License bought through Dell for example can’t be moved to an HP. That will also increase license and operational costs. The use case here is a desktop used as kiosk machine and the need for the kiosk goes away – the desktop gets reimaged with standard enterprise making it org standard and freeing that ltsc license.

The next day a new kiosk need arises in an office miles away. Today you would take a spare usable desktop at that office and reimage it with the ltsc image and done. With IoT you now must have machines of both types standard and IoT in store and you as result again will have increased costs for logistics. Also: With a 10 year support cycle and a three year release cycle you can get 9 years out of your LTSC build with a year for dev and deployment.

With a 5 year support and 3 year release, you will have to reimage for every release once again increasing operational costs a lot. Is this is a way to go? It still means costs and downtime on that box regardless of how you do it. If you have to do it three times it costs 3X as much as doing it once Since 10 year support only will apply to IoT not to standard OEM you must get the IoT version and none of my vendors can supply it without selling it as a part of a HW – Can you buy it as a license only?

The concern here is how do we maintain 10 year support by obtaining LTSC IoT licenses that can be transferred between hardware manufacturers. Windows 7 got updates to support new hardware over teh years. Windows 10 LTSC f. Sooner or later the available hardware on the market changes. So what shell I do with an operating system what have support for 10 years but after four, five or even seven years there is no hardware I can install it on?

Maybe some people have special hardware what will be sold an supported over such a long time but I’m in doubt that this is the case for the most of us. But we believe that we must change to a newer version of Windows 10 LTSC before the support for ends because of the hardware problem. Barbara Joost the situation is even worse based on your scenario. LTSC does only support the hardware available at release. But sooner or later Dell must follow the change in the CPU architecture in the technical world around.

At this point we must change to a newer version of LTSC too in the case we buy new machines. I’m sure this will not take 10 years. This will happen earlier. So it makes not so much sens in my eyes to support an LTSC over 10 years.

Do we have a better date on availability than just second half of ? I run a department at a college and we can’t have a semi annual upgrades wreck software, so LTSC is what I’ve been using with our E5 license. I’m at the point where the software wants the newer features, but postponing a Windows feature upgrade for X months is still not a workable solution.

LTSC is the best way forward for me since my licensing allows me to use it. It is time that I start working on new images in preparation for the Summer work to get everything ready for the Fall semester. In my experience most people I met are upset about the SAC because they still do manual images, sysprep and all the stuff as they did ever since. Tammy Thanks, I guess that didn’t click.

Might be an issue and I guess I’ll find out in the next few months when I log in and check for a download. It would be sad to see this option go because there are a lot of places that aren’t connected to internet, etc. We work on a hardware cycle every 5-ish years, so the new term isn’t a big deal to me. But sometime I need to get with the current times and set up something like MDM.

I would say SCCM, our college has this running, but the costs the last time I checked were far more than my little department can afford. I’m technically a separate everything from the college, the only thing I share is the internet connection behind my own firewall.

About 60 workstations at this time, so pretty small in the grand scheme of things. Joe Lurie do you know anyone who’s working on the update history pages? I have asked Aria Carley many weeks ago and she passed it on, but it wasn’t fixed.

In fact it’s super easy to upgrade those versions since you do not have to worry about all the other superfluous, non-OS essential things that are in the normal Win10 versions. Also, lol to anyone who has to support embedded machines and now have to deal with an out-of-support OS within 5 years, hell there were still embedded things running WinXp not more than a few years ago.

You can check for updates manually by performing the steps below:. Microsoft is slowly making the new version available to users via Windows Update , and it may take even a few weeks until you get your turn to install this update via Windows Update. If for some reason you do not wish to keep the installed update v20H2, you can always roll back to the previous build of the OS.

However, this can only be performed within the next 10 days after installing the new update. For rolling back after 10 days, you will need to apply this trick. Norm June 23, AM.

It did the 20h2 update automatically and it goes into a light blue screen and then it rolls back the update. Doug November 4, AM. So what if anything gets installed if you use the ISO for the feature update not a clean install? Is this because you cannot upgrade to from have to go first?

Usman Khurshid November 4, PM. Ideally you should be able to upgrade from to 20H2 especially with the ISO image. Was there any error when you ran the ISO?

Doug October 30, PM. Please verify this. I might be wrong. Usman Khurshid October 31, AM. Doug, the download links point to the Microsoft servers. I will download the file myself and confirm that it is Version 20H2. The file name says so.

Doug October 31, PM. I ran DISM on iso and it shows version as Per December 4, PM. Name Value —- —— BuildVersion Win10Geek October 21, AM. WOW that was quick. I was expecting the download links from you after a day or two later as always :. I have to share some of the useful information I have gone through:. Known issues remain the same as of version Errors or issues during or after updating devices with certain Conexant audio drivers Devices with affected Conexant or Synaptics audio drivers might receive a stop error with a blue screen.
